I had such a wonderful time on both Tues and Weds night at our local Active Rain Meet ups.  It was so much fun.  I'm reblogging Donna Bigda's post as I finally got to meet her and so many others.  Reconnecting w/ those I had already meet was so wonderful, too.

We are all like family.

Active Rain Meet Up In Connecticut

This past Wednesday night the Active Rain Meet Up in Connecticut was held by our own Dagny Eason at her home in Wilton CT.  The weather was not very cooperative that day with plenty of rainfall throughout the day but hey what else could you expect for an Active Rain meet up?

My original plans were to drive up with Andrea Swiedler and I was so looking forward to seeing her again as we had not seen one another since our epic Thimble Islands cruise two years ago.  Unfortunately Andrea had other matters that needed her immediate attention and emailed me about how disappointed she was at not being able to go.

About 26 people from both Active Rain along with a few others who Dagny is trying to recruit into joining Active Rain arrived during the course of the evening.

Having the opportunity to meet members face to face that I had gotten to know only through their posts on Active Rain was beyond exciting and really gave meaning to the word "family" when it comes to our Active Rain community.

There was great conversation, delicious food, hugs, kisses and bonds created that will only enforce the relationships we had already established prior to meeting one another.

My photos are not of the best quality because I had to use the camera on my phone because the battery in the digital camera I brought was dead and made me very unhappy,

Sounds like you all had a great meet up!  We had a good time too.  Ours was on the loft of a pub, and pretty loud!

Debbie - Thanks so much for the reblog!  It's been a crazy day and made worse cuz I couldn't spend any time on AR.  I just finished up not too long ago responding to all the comments I received and just wanted to stop by here before I call it a night.
